In Haiti, public transportation is often by taptaps, small pickup trucks with seats along the sides of the pickup bed and railings to which passengers can hang
on. Typically they carry two dozen or more passengers plus an assortment of chickens, goats, luggage, etc. Putting this much into the back of a pickup truck
puts quite a large load on the truck springs.
A truck has springs for each wheel, but for simplicity assume that the individual springs can be treated as one spring with a spring constant that includes the
effect of all the springs. Also for simplicity, assume that all four springs compress equally when weight is added to the truck and that the equilibrium length of
the springs is the length they have when they support the load of an empty truck.
